Returning Chris Brunt unsure of what position he will play at West Brom

The versatile Albion stalwart is nearing a return to first-team action following the injury to his anterior cruciate knee ligament last season, and has featured in a couple of matches for the under-23s in recent weeks.

Brunt is entering his tenth season at the Baggies, and has played in a variety of positions for the club.

The 31-year-old former club captain joined in 2007 as a left-winger, but also played several times in central midfield.

Ever since Tony Pulis joined the club he's been used at left-back, although the Baggies brought in two new full-backs in the summer with Brendan Galloway arriving on loan from Everton and Allan Nyom joining from Watford.

Brunt is not sure yet where Pulis wants to play him, but he's willing to fit in anywhere he's needed.

"That'll be down to the gaffer, if he wants to play me or if he doesn't," he said. "To be totally honest I'm not really too sure where my position is anymore.

"Last season I played mostly left-back, in internationals I've ended up playing left-back too."

"If I'm fit and ready and wherever the gaffer feels I need to go into the team in whatever position I'll go in there and do my best, that's all you can do I suppose."

Brunt has played in central midfield for James Shan's u23s, but he said: "Midfield is obviously a little bit different playing in these games rather than a first team scenario."
